Product Summary

Compared with steel ball bearing, full steel ball bearing is a special ball bearing. All the parts of this bearing are made from steel. The material is an alloy that makes up of iron and has carbon content between 0.2% and 2.1% by weight, depending on the grade. Carbon is the most common alloying material for iron, but various other alloying elements are used, such as manganese, chromium, vanadium, and tungsten.

Additionally, full steel ball bearing has many types such as angular contact ball bearing, ceramic ball bearing, deep groove ball bearing, self-aligning ball bearing, thrust ball bearing and other ball bearing. It is a vital component used in transmission of dynamic loads in machine parts that continuously move. A bearing helps reduce the friction force between the moving parts, allowing smooth transfer of motion. Moreover, it is also a type of rolling-element bearing which uses balls to maintain the separation between the moving parts of the bearing. It is also referred as anti-friction bearing and a small metallic or ceramic sphere used to reduce friction between shafts and axles in a number of applications. Ball bearings are often used in a series to absorb the weight placed on a moving part, or in individual cages to reduce friction in axle assemblies.
